About Us

I find unique, popular, vintage items, all either new, or pre owned in excellent shape or refurbishable shape for resale. I explore flea markets, yard sales, discount stores, estate sales, etc. for excellent finds. I deal in jewelry, small appliances, tables linens and accessories, belts, vintage and name brand purses, clothing, shoes, kitchen items, etc. It could be anything unique and in excellent shape or might just need a little loving care before it is listed. I advertise honestly and with flare. See my Gallery of Examples below. These are just a few. I have a large listing and array of items. Please visit my store for the full listings.

How We Got Started

To present saleable items in NEW, pre owned, or refurbished shape in an honest descriptive manner. It's an honest exchange of money for merchandise. I design and handmake my bead embroidery jewelry, they are all one of a kind items and no longer part of ebay.

(more) I had a thriving ebay store before the pandemic but when the government started giving those high unemployment payments and stimuluses, My business thrived even more.  Now its the supply chain instabilities, higher cost of stocking, higher ship rates.  I think most businesses that survived the pandemic are still trying to recoup what they lost.  Lets face it that is really the only way to do it.  Everything I see and purchased beforehand has doubled or tripled in price.  I wonder if its really needed or just because it can be justified by saying you need it.  Inflation is not stopping either.  I just paid $13.00 for a bag of cat food I paid $7.50 for a year ago.???? Tell me that is reasonable?  Its not........We will see?????

(more) I do not go by polls.  I work online only as far as my ebay store and my bead embroidery designs.  I need more sales, daily sales.  I am considered a trusted business person online.  I have been online since before 2005.  Expanding cannot be done now, I have credit card already out and medical bills I am trying to pay off.  Its hard pay off bills when you don't have but a little coming in.  I need extra work.  I need 2 solid years of full time work to get caught up on these bills.  A loan is out of the question.  I continue to look for more online work, remote would be great.  I have plenty of time for it and can keep what I have also.

No it doesn't it mans the same budgeting as before.  When you are expected to live on nothing you always stay on top of your expenses.  I have a businessd degree and 40 years of experie4nce but they still expect me to work for nothing.

No other options.  I have been putting in applications for jobs for 16 years with no return on it.  I had no choice but to try and support myself on my own.  My family doesn't support me.  I have to take care of myself.  There is no one else but me.  (more) No other options.  I have been putting in applications for jobs for 16 years with no return on it.  I had no choice but to try and support myself on my own.  My family doesn't support me.  I have to take care of myself.  There is no one else but me.

I have learned that nothing is consistent.  My business actually picked up 50% when the pandemic hit.  It has been consistent until October it took a nose dive.  I learned to budget my money even further.  I hate budgeting.  I would like for once to do something I want to do.  I can't do anything... (more) I have learned that nothing is consistent.  My business actually picked up 50% when the pandemic hit.  It has been consistent until October it took a nose dive.  I learned to budget my money even further.  I hate budgeting.  I would like for once to do something I want to do.  I can't do anything extra or give myself any luxuries.  I want my bead embroidery bracelets to start selling, when that happens I will be successful and maybe be able to do a few things I have needed for a long time.

(more) I work from home alone so no problem here.  I have an online business in sales and never noticed a slow down at all until around September.  I think many of my regular customers are having cash flow problems.  At first when the stimulus was delivered it helped many customers make purchases that they had not been able to make before.  But now its really hitting home.  I really don't know what the holiday season will bring?

When they issued the high unemployment my business took off.  It increased 40% then took a drop around the 1st of May.  It has picked back up.  I was just glad I could work online during this debacle.  I have not asked for anything from the government.  I was glad to get the stimulus as it was...
